For this episode, we travelled to rural Indiana to meet Daniel - a former creative professional whose career was upended by the layoffs of 2020. With an industry in collapse and no clear next step, Daniel and his family made a life-changing move: back to the farming community where he was raised, to start over from scratch.What began as an experimental side project in his basement has grown into a thriving letterpress studio. Now, Daniel creates custom prints, collaborates with businesses, and shares his journey through talks and workshops across the U.S., all from his home studio nestled in the heart of farmland - which we visited!His story is one of creative reinvention and the power of staying open to unexpected possibilities.
